Etching customization process

CAD Design

Step 1: Phototool Design / CAD Design

Our skilled engineers design precise phototools or utilize computer-aided design (CAD) to create digital blueprints for the desired metal component.

Metal Selection

Step 2: Metal Selection & Prep

The appropriate metal material is selected based on project requirements, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance. The metal surface is meticulously cleaned and prepared for the photoresist coating.

UV-sensitive photoresist

Step 3: Photoresist Coating

A photoresist material is applied to the metal surface, forming a protective layer that will define the etching pattern.

Exposure With Etching Film

Step 4: UV Exposure

The metal substrate is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light through the phototool, which transfers the desired pattern onto the photoresist-coated surface.

Developing after Coating

Step 5: Development

The photoresist-coated metal is developed, removing the unexposed areas and revealing the etching pattern.

Photochemical Etching

Step 6: Chemical Etching

The metal substrate undergoes chemical etching, where it is immersed in an etchant solution that selectively removes the exposed areas, leaving behind the desired etched pattern.

Stripping the sensitive coating

Step 7: Photoresist Stripping

The remaining photoresist is stripped from the etched metal surface, revealing the clean and precise etched features.

Inspection and Finishing

Step 8: Final Inspection

Each etched metal component undergoes a rigorous inspection process to ensure quality and accuracy before being released for delivery.
